The root setup on the backuppc server side is irrelevant. You may have
set it up in addition to the correct backuppc setup. You don't need it.

You need root access on the target side to be able to access all the
files. But, you want the keys for the backuppc user on the backuppc
server side to give you that access, because that is how the command is run.
